FBS NEAR MISSES• InadditiontoitssevenvictoresoverFBSopponents, ASU also has had its share of competitive losses to FBS squads, including two from the SEC.

• 2005 at LSU (No. 6 LSU 24, ASU 0) Appalachian trailed the JaMarcus Russell-led Tigers just 14-0 going into the fourth quarter and dropped a touchdown pass and missed a field goal on sepa- rate drives in the third period that would have cut the deficit to 14-10 heading into the final stanza. • 1999 at Auburn (AU 22, ASU 15) The Mountaineers led 15-7 late in the third period and appeared to be headed to overtime with the SEC power before Auburn marched 77 yards in 1:04 to score the winning touchdown with just 38 seconds left to play in regulation. ASU out-gained Auburn, 323-288, for the game and held AU to just 54 yards of offense in the first half.

LINEBACKERS AS GOOD AS IT GETS• OnespotwhereAppalachiancertainlydoesn’t have to worry about inexperience is at linebacker, where ASU returns perhaps the nation’s top group at the position in Pierre Banks, Jacque Roman and D.J. Smith.

• Banks,thepreseasonSouthernConferenceDefensive Player of the Year, has recorded 275 careertackles,just47shyofASU’sall-timetop10.

• Romanalsotiedforthirdintheconferencewith two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

• Perhapsthemostdynamicofthelineback-ing corps is Smith, who finished second on the squad with 121 tackles despite not start-ing at weakside linebacker until the seventh game of the season.

• Smith’s121stopswerethemostbyanASUfreshman since Dexter Coakley recorded 159 in 1993.

• Smithnotcheddouble-digittacklesinfiveof his nine starts as a true freshman and was named the SoCon’s Defensive Player of the Month after leading ASU in tackles (49) and interceptions (2) in November.

OH CAPTAINS, MY CAPTAINS• JuniorquarterbackArmanti Edwards and senior linebacker Pierre Banks were voted Appalachian’s 2008 captains by their team-mates.

• Inadditiontobeingleadersonthefield,the duo also leads by example in the class-room, as both earned ASU Academic Honor Roll status for achieving grade point averages of at least 3.25 during the spring semester.

WHAT A RUSH• ThanksinlargeparttoEdwards,Appa-lachian turned in three of the top rushing performances in school history in the final seven games of the ‘07 campaign.

• ASU’s439rushingyardsatTheCitadelonNov. 3 were its most since tallying 572 yards on the ground versus Lenoir-Rhyne on Oct. 18, 1975.

• Thesquad’s435-yardrushingperformanceversus Richmond in the national semifinals marked only the fifth time in the 30 years — but second time in six weeks — that the Mountaineers had rushed for 400 yards or more.

• Additionally,theMountaineersnearlytopped the 400-yard rushing mark again on Nov. 10 vs. Western Carolin when they finished with 396 yards on the ground.

• Inall,Appalachianaveraged349.3rushingyards per game over the final seven contests of the 2007 season (all wins).

BIG SHOES TO FILL• Appalachian’svauntedrushingattackcer-tainly wasn’t fueled by Edwards alone in 2007, as Kevin Richardson, ASU’s all-time leading rusher, contributed with 1,348 yards a year ago to give him 4,804 for his record-setting career.

MORE SHOES TO FILL• Appalachianhasanumberofotherspotswhere it must make up for the departure of a core group of veterans.

• ASUlostallfourofitsstartersinthesecondary from last year’s team to gradu-ation, including three four-year starters in cornerbacks Jerome Touchstone and Justin Woazeah and safety Corey Lynch.

• LynchandWoazeaharerankedNos.1and2 in FCS history in passes defended with 52 and 51, respectively.

• DespitethelossofthemainstaysintheASU secondary, the new starters in the defen-sive backfield are not completely lacking in experience, especially in big games.

• SeniornickelLeonard Love made two starts a season ago, including the season-opening win at Michigan, where he made a crucial interception deep in ASU territory in the fourth quarter.

• JuniorcornerbackCortez Gilbert also made a pair of starts in ‘07, both coming in thepostseason.HestartedforaninjuredTouchstone in ASU’s national quarterfinal win over Eastern Washington and started in place ofWoazeahversusDelawareinthenationaltitle game.

• Appalachianalsograduatedthreeall-Americans from its offensive line — guards Kerry Brown and John Holt and center Scott Suttle.

WELCOME TO THE ROCK • AppalachianwontheFCSregular-seasonattendance title for both average (27,140) and total attendance (162,841) in 2007.

• ASUclaimedthetotalattendancetitledespite playing one fewer home game than runner-up Montana.

• TheMountaineersaveragedawhopping163 percent of Kidd Brewer Stadium’s 16,650-seat capacity during the 2007 regular season.

• Sincethebeginningofthe2005season,ASU has drawn 24,440 fans per regular-sea-son home game (146.79 percent of capacity).

• Thecrowdof24,140thatwitnessedASU’s55-35 win over Richmond in the national semifinals was the largest for a non-champi-onship game in I-AA/FCS postseason history.

• Despitethenetadditionofnearly4,000seats with the construction of an upper deck on the stadium’s east side, reserved seats for the entire 2008 season are already sold out.

HOME SWEET HOME• ASUhaswon35ofitslast36gamesKiddBrewer Stadium , dating back to the begin-ning of the 2003 season.

• Appalachian’s30-gamehomewinningstreak, the nation’s longest in Division I, was snapped with a 38-35 loss to Georgia South-ern on Oct. 20, 2007.

• NoplayeronASU’srosterhassufferedmorethan one loss at home. Last year’s senior class closed their collegiate careers with a gaudy 29-1 record at home.

CAROLINAS’ BEST • Priortowinningitsfirstnationalchampi-onship in 2005, a quantitative study by the Charlotte Observer tabbed Appalachian as the Carolinas’ most successful Division I football program over the previous two decades (1985-2004).

• Alookatthenumberssincetheturnofthemillenium seem to back up the Observer’s findings. Since 2000, Appalachian has the best winning percentage of any Division I program in North or South Carolina.

ROAD WARRIORS• WhilemuchwasmadeofAppalachian’sschool-record 30-game home winning streak, ASU has also proven to be a force to be reck-oned with away from Kidd Brewer Stadium in recent years.

• Since going winless on the road in 2004, Appalachian is 13-2 versus FCS competition and 14-4 overall away from Kidd Brewer Sta-dium.

• UnderJerry Moore, Appalachian is 67-52 in road games. However, 17 of the 52 losses have come against FBS competition.

• ASU’sdrawingpowertranslatestotheroadtoo. Since the beginning of the 2006 season, Appalachian has played in front of capacity crowds in 18-of-22 regular-season games.

ALL-AMERICA TRADITION• Appalachian has placed at least one player on an all-America squad after each of the past 22 seasons. In 19 of those seasons, including each of the past 12, the Mountaineers have produced at least one first-teamer.

• In2007,anational-record11Appsgar-nered all-America accolades, including three first-teamers that return in ‘08: LB Pierre Banks, QB Armanti Edwards, and DL An-thony Williams.

MOUNTAINEERS IN THE NFL• Five former Mountaineers currently grace NFL rosters: DE Jason Hunter (Green Bay Packers — third year), WR Dexter Jackson (Tampa Bay Buccaneers — first year), DB Corey Lynch (Cincinnati Bengals — first year), LB Marques Murrell (New York Jets — sec-ond year) and TE Daniel Wilcox (Baltimore Ravens — eighth year).

• WhenJackson(secondround—58thoverall) and Lynch (sixth round — 177th overall) were selected in the 2008 NFL Draft, it marked the only the third time in school history and first time since 1992 that two Mountaineers were drafted in the same year.
